First, you decide on a number of “boxes” you want to use for your system. I have “boxes” in quotes because I don’t own little boxes and am just using rubber bands and labeled sticky notes instead – which actually makes the whole system more portable.

Each of your boxes represents a different study time interval. In a system with five boxes, a good set of intervals would be:

This schedule roughly follows the original algorithm developed by Piotr Wozniak, though I’ve made a couple of changes. First, I’ve stopped increasing the interval past two weeks to make the system work for realistic test preparation periods. Of course, you can always add more boxes if you want.

Second, I’ve introduced a “retired” box, which should hold cards that you definitely know. If you’re in college, you’re probably already super-busy with other things like
trying to find an internship
and
coming up with money for textbooks
, so I think it’s alright to consider those cards “known” – but I still think it’s a good idea to review them before a test.

Every card starts out in Box 1. When you get a card right, it graduates to the next box. If you get a card
wrong,
it goes all the way back to Box 1 –
no matter where it was.
In this way, you ensure that you’re studying the material that challenges you often.

no matter where it was.

After your boxes are set up, all you need to do is create recurring events on your
calendar
so you’ll know when to study each box. Pretty simple, right?

But, perhaps the analog lifestyle isn’t for you. Well, come along my computer-loving brethren. We can’t upload our consciousnesses and become robots
yet
, but we can at least use…

The SRS (spaced repetition software) arena has a ton of contenders, including the aforementioned
SuperMemo
.

Anki is popular for good reason; it has a huge community of people who share decks (though you’ll learn better by making your own), it’s insanely customizable, and there are
free
(with one caveat) apps for it on almost every platform, including

The only caveat is that the iPhone version costs $25, which is most likely their way of letting people support the program since it’s free everywhere else. However, if you can’t afford that (it’s pretty steep for an app, I know), you can still use the web version in Mobile Safari.

Creating cards is easy, and you can add pretty much whatever type of media you like to them – which is excellent, since adding pictures can really help increase retention.
